PRESERVING FOOD AND CULTURE THE LEBANESE WAY -- The very best
memories connecting us to time and place are often stimulated by
the tastes and smells of our childhood. Freshly-baked bread, hot
from the oven, sweet homemade jam dribbling down our chins, or the
burst of flavor in each dried grape--these memories bring a smile
to our faces even as they call to mind the people who made them
possible. Do you remember working alongside your grandmother as she
lovingly preserved garden-fresh foods to set back for the winter?
You watched Jiddo (grandfather) patiently prepare his arak, but
could you reproduce his efforts from memory? Are you lucky enough
that they kept written records of recipes gleaned from family
history and years of experience? If so, count yourself among the
very fortunate minority. The reality for many of us is that we no
longer enjoy such a strong connection to our culinary roots. As
much as we might wish the contrary, the beauty and simplicity of
home-preserved pantry items, the mouneh, taken for granted during
our childhood, often seems a lifetime away. In Barbara Abdeni
Massaad's book, Mouneh: Preserving Foods for the Lebanese Pantry,
we've been thrown a lifeline to a piece of our cultural and
culinary identity. So many things we would love to recreate for our
own families become possible within these pages, thanks to the
author's diligent research, stunning photography, simply presented
instructions and delightful stories.
